desert rose



Her daddy's birthday was in July when I took these pics, but to be a broken record, again, I have taken forever to upload pics from summer. I like to play in the summer time and not work in front of a computer, so here it is, almost October and we have a lot going on still. I thought I was finally on track to scheduling these posts, but of course here are again doing catchup.

Her daddy is her hero and her best friend. She looks at him with big eyes and fascination like he is a wizard with the magic to make anything happen for her and he basically does. He will do anything and everything to make her happy. To say she is a daddy's girl is an understatement. He told her it was actually her birthday instead of his and he insisted on buying her presents once she was convinced. 

The minute he held her after she was born, she started cooing in his arms. It sounded as though she was telling him about her day's long journey. Their bond was immediately cemented at that moment. They are kindred spirits and their similarities are insane. She looks like me but acts just like him. She makes his facial expressions and gestures identically. Even the way she moves her hair out of her face, is the exact way he does it. Two peas in a pod. Peas and Carrots! ha

She has his zest for life, silly personality and the ability to be so happy and positive. Don't get me wrong, she definitely has my attitude, sass and temper, but she's fun spirited like him and I want her to be more like him every day. I hope she always kicks me out of the best friend seat when he comes home from work every evening and I hope she always wants him to put her to sleep. 

She is now the source of his contentment and happiness which is the most precious thing to witness.
Never thought I would be ok with another girl in my spot ;)
